A friend of mine recently went to Disney World and visited the Star Wars Shop. And when she got back she told me:

So anyway, the cashier at the shop had an interesting theory. He first talked about how Count Dooku said that if Qui-Gon hadn't died, he would have joined him, and the guy wondered if he really would have. He went on to talk about all the things Qui-Gon did that didn't make sense, and ended by proclaiming that Qui-Gon Jinn set the entire galaxy up to crumble. Have you ever heard this theory? He went into quite a few twisted details, and I think he would have gone on all day if I'd just stood there listening.

Was wondering if anybody'd heard of this before? Sounds very...detailed. But I doubt the cashier made it up. There must be some group out there that thinks that.

Ah, I see. I'll have to let her know...I'd never of him before. Guess she hasn't either. Well you learn something new every day. _________________"It's not about the legacy you leave, it's about the life you live." ~Mara Jade Skywalker

On the topic of Qui-Gon. I would like to see some more books on his past. Jude Watson got into it a little, but I'd prefer something that isn't a children's book. I mean, Jude is great, but I need something more intense.

Get the Legacy of the Jedi / Secrets of the Jedi two in one books then- it's the only one I know that has it other then a Qui-gon flashback._________________-Bring on your thousands, one at a time or all in a rush. I don't give a damn. None shall pass.

Maybe I'm wrong, but did Dark Rendezvous mention Qui-Gon and Dooku much? I remember much about the early relationship of Yoda and Dooku, and I kind of recall Qui-Gon...

Secrets/Legacy were good for kids' books, but I'd like to see an adult Qui-Gon novel.

Agreed- and more figures!_________________-Bring on your thousands, one at a time or all in a rush. I don't give a damn. None shall pass.

It would be neat, but I don't know how much demand there would be after all Qui-gon is so 90s. _________________

Well Maul gets plenty of play. The only Jedi we see him kill in the movies is Qui-gon. You'd think he'd have more just for that. But then I'd like an EU 2 pack with Qui-gon and Young Obi-wan._________________-Bring on your thousands, one at a time or all in a rush. I don't give a damn. None shall pass.
